1 Transportation Advisory Board of the Metropolitan Council of the Twin Cities ACTION TRANSMITTAL No DATE: February 5, 2016 TO: FROM: Transportation Advisory Board Technical Advisory Committee PREPARED BY: Steven Elmer, Planning Analyst, (651) SUBJECT: REQUESTED ACTION: RECOMMENDED MOTION: Regional Bicycle Transportation Network (RBTN) Change Requests Dakota County requests that specific Tier 1 and Tier 2 alignments be designated on the Met Council s on-line, interactive RBTN map for use in the 2016 Regional Solicitation. That TAB approve the Met Council s on-line, interactive RBTN map with changes requested by Dakota County, for use in the 2016 Regional Solicitation. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF ACTION: The Regional Bicycle Transportation Network (RBTN) was developed through a Regional Bicycle System Study conducted in and later adopted by the Met Council as the official regional bicycle network in the 2040 Transportation Policy Plan (TPP). The goal of the RBTN is to establish an integrated seamless network of on-street bikeways and off-road trails to most effectively improve conditions for bicycle transportation at the regional level and to encourage planning and implementation of future bikeways by cities, counties, parks agencies, and the state, in support of the regional network vision. The Met Council is the responsible government agency to designate the various corridors and alignments through the development and adoption of the TPP. In order to provide the best opportunity for local jurisdictions to implement the RBTN through the regional solicitation process, the Council notified local governments in November of this opportunity to request minor refinements to the RBTN map. The following specific types of administrative or technical change requests were accepted for consideration at this time: A. Designating an official alignment within an established Tier 1 or Tier 2 corridor; B. Establishing a designated alignment that parallels and is within ½-mile of an established Tier 1 or Tier 2 corridor; C. Moving a designated Tier 1 or Tier 2 alignment to a parallel location within ½-mile of the original alignment. The Met Council received two requests for changes to the RBTN map and each is described below: 1) Dakota County is requesting that CSAH 38 (McAndrews Road) be designated as the official Tier 2 alignment for the RBTN Tier 2 corridor between Nicollet Avenue in Burnsville and TH 3 in Rosemount. This proposed change would be an administrative revision, as defined in the 2040 TPP, that identifies a more specific alignment within what is shown as a conceptual one-mile wide corridor in the TPP (see attached Map A). Page 1 of 3

2 2) Dakota County is requesting that a Tier 1 alignment be designated to replace the northsouth RBTN Tier 1 corridor centered along Galaxie Avenue between CSAH 42 in Apple Valley and CSAH 32 in Eagan (see attached Map B). The proposed alignment would lie approximately 1/8 th to ½-mile east of the established Tier 1 corridor; it would parallel the Tier 1 corridor and would follow Flagstaff Avenue and Johnny Cake Ridge Road. RELATIONSHIP TO REGIONAL POLICY: The RBTN was adopted into the 2040 Transportation Policy Plan in January The RBTN sets the region s priorities for bicycle planning and investment. STAFF ANALYSIS: Staff reviewed each request to determine how the regional intent of the original RBTN corridor or alignment was maintained, improved, or impacted. Change Request #1: Designate Dakota County State Aid Highway 38 as the Tier 2 alignment for the existing Tier 2 corridor between Nicollet Avenue in Burnsville and TH 3 in Rosemount. The review and analysis for this proposed change resulted in the following findings: All of the criteria were met regarding the original RBTN corridor directional orientation and proximity to the proposed alignment, and regarding support within local plans. All criteria were met with regard to the RBTN guidelines established in the 2040 TPP for designating RBTN corridors and alignments. As a result of this review and analysis, staff recommends accepting the request to designate CSAH 38 as the official RBTN Tier 2 alignment between Nicollet Avenue and TH 3. Change Request #2: Designate a Tier 1 alignment approximately 1/8 th to ½-mile east of and generally parallel to the north-south RBTN Tier 1 corridor centered along Galaxie Avenue between CSAH 42 and CSAH 32 in Dakota County. The review and analysis for this proposed change resulted in the following findings: All of the criteria were met regarding the original RBTN corridor directional orientation and proximity to the proposed alignment, and regarding support within local plans. All but one criteria were met with regard to the RBTN guidelines established in the 2040 TPP for designating RBTN corridors and alignments. One criterion, follow spacing guidelines that reflect established development and transportation patterns was partially met. Although the original spacing of the RBTN corridors/alignments is narrowed, the proposed alignment improves direct connections to a major high school and other regional destinations that would increase potential bicycle travel compared to the expected demand within the original corridor. As a result of this review and analysis, staff recommends accepting the request to designate a Tier 1 alignment east of and generally parallel to the existing north-south RBTN Tier 1 corridor centered along Galaxie Avenue in Dakota County. COMMITTEE COMMENTS AND ACTION: At its January 14, 2016, meeting, TAC Planning recommended adoption of the updated map for use in the Regional Solicitation. Page 2 of 3

4 DAKOTA COUNTY RBTN Change Request A: Designate CSAH 38 (McAndrews Road) as an RBTN 2 official alignment The proposed designation of CSAH 38 as a Tier 2 Alignment addresses the following. (See Attachment 2) Proposed Change Map - Aligns with both Apple Valley and Rosemount Bicycle Pedestrian Plans - Aligns with Dakota County Regional Trail System Plan - Connects Regional Destinations including Minnesota Zoo, Lebanon Hills Regional Park, BurnsvilleCenter, Cedar BRT, North Creek Regional Greenway, Rosemount Regional Greenway
